They aren't regular bath salts. That is just what they are sold as. And yeah, they are bad shit. My mom is a nurse in a hospital mental ward. A little while back she was in a meeting going over new patient charts. The docs kept referring to patients as salters. She finally asked what they were talking about and they told her these patients had been using bath salts. Almost over night all of their patients were "salters". It wasn't long after that that they just started shipping them directly to the state mental hospital as there was nothing they could do for the salters. It seems that bath salts users are having complete psychotic breaks with weeks of starting on the drug.
